Finland funds mental health project in Lebanon’s refugee camps
A new development cooperation project funded by the Finnish Ministry for Foreign Affairs will begin in early 2025 to support mental health and resilience in Lebanon’s refugee camps. The initiative, named Azima, aims to bolster psychological well-being and crisis endurance among displaced populations in the region.
Finnish psychologist Nina Lyytinen will travel to Lebanon twice a year to train local family centre workers and supervisors in mental health, workplace well-being, and psychological resilience.
